Yes, experienced users may well grab KDE spin for Plasma, and then
proceed to customize it to their needs and/or preferences.

But there is also the audience who are trying out KDE (or Gnome/etc)
for the first time and providing them with an installed base of
software to try / check out is convenient and the right thing to do.

While you (and others) may well know the name of the software you like
for a given task, new people will not have that knowledge.
